A and I walked on Kelling Heath this morning.  Fortunately, all of yesterday's rain had gone and although cool first thing it was actually a rather pleasant morning with some sunshine, albeit a little muddy in places.

We ended up at Weybourne Station for our coffee.  The North Norfolk Railway were running 3 steam engines today.  This is Wissington, a 0-6-0 Saddletank, 'Countess of Warwick' class engine built in 1938 for the British Sugar Corporation, who kindly donated it to the M&GNR. It's built for light work so tends to haul some of the vintage carriages.

While we were enjoying our coffee, a group of Morris Dancers arrived on the opposite platform and entertained us with their music and dance (see extra).

It was good to see folk out and about having fun after a couple of days of extremely wet weather.
